Daughter for Sale: All for My Brother Chapter 9
Three days later, the court convened. Kieran was sentenced to 15 years in prison, while Mom and Dad were each sentenced to three years. I sat in the gallery, watching Mom's and Dad's faces turn pale the moment they heard the verdict. Both of them turned to look at me, their eyes filled with despair. Mom's voice was choked with emotion. "I know I was wrong, Daphne. Please talk to the judge. I don't want to go to prison!"Dad rasped, "I'm sorry for what I did to you, Daphne… However, you can't just ruin your mom and me. Besides, if we're both behind bars, what's going to happen to your little brother?"I forced a self-deprecating smile. Leo again. It was always about Leo.My relatives, who had come to watch the trial, began piping up. "Daphne, you can't be an ungrateful wretch and send your own parents to prison! Don't you have a conscience?""Daphne, you wouldn't even exist without them! Did you learn nothing from all those years in school?""I can't believe you'd take your own

In an instant, all eyes were on me. I pointed at Kieran and forced out, "H-He's not my husband. I'm only 18, and he raped me!"I rolled up my sleeves, pant legs, and shirt, exposing the countless injuries littering my body."Dad gave me all these injuries. He set me up to be raped; he's an accomplice! Even if the surveillance footage is gone, the injuries on my body are evidence. There's still evidence left inside my body from Kieran, too. I'm willing to undergo a forensic examination right this instant!"The moment those words left my mouth, the smiles froze on Mom and Dad's faces, rendering them speechless.Before long, I was escorted to undergo a forensic medical examination. The wounds on my skin matched the marks left by Dad's belt. The most compelling evidence was the physical evidence Kieran had left behind inside me. Even the doctor who examined me couldn't help but frown in sympathy. "What kind of monster would do this to such a young lady…"I pressed my dry, parched li

Dad blanched, and he staggered backward in fright. Kieran hurriedly released his grip on my hair. I practically scrambled on all fours, throwing myself at the cruiser. "Help—"Before I could finish, Mom clamped her hand over my mouth. She plastered a smile on her face and hurriedly explained to the officer, "Please don't get the wrong idea. My daughter's been mentally unstable since she was little; she always thinks people are out to hurt her. We were just about to take her to see a doctor when she suddenly bolted out."Kieran hastily chimed in, putting on the appearance of an honest, harmless man. "That's right. I'm her husband. We were just about to take her to the hospital. I'm so sorry you had to see this."Both of them painted me as a lunatic. Realizing that the officer was about to leave, I shook my head frantically and pointed at the shattered surveillance camera on the ground. "They're lying! That camera captured all the evidence of them hurting me!" I rasped out.I rol

Mom and Dad completely lost it. Both of them charged at me and tried to stop me. I looked at them stoically. "I'm not going to sacrifice the rest of my life for you." With that, I casually tossed the matchbox aside. I tilted my head up and looked at the surveillance camera mounted on the side of the neighbor's house. It had captured everything Mom and Dad had done to me. All I needed to do was make sure they were held accountable by the law. The look of sheer terror on Mom and Dad's faces instantly froze, giving way to raging fury at being fooled. Dad raised his hand to slap me across the face. "How dare you play games with me, you bitch?"I had been prepared for it. I stepped aside to dodge it. Dad struck nothing but air and staggered forward a few steps, nearly losing his balance. Without sparing him so much as a glance, I turned on my heel and walked away. "Get back here, Daphne!" Dad bellowed before catching up to me in a couple of bounds. "If you dare step out of this

"Daphne, have you lost your mind? What do you think you're doing?" Dad's voice trembled as he stared intently at the matchbox in my hand. The strong smell of gas filled the kitchen, making him instinctively cover his nose and mouth. Mom blanched, her trembling finger pointing at the matchbox in my hand. "Hurry up and throw that matchbox away, Daphne! Can't you smell the gas filling the kitchen? What if the whole place blows up?" she roared at me, her eyes locked on my every move. Meeting the panic and terror in their eyes, I couldn't help but chuckle. Mom and Dad were afraid of dying, too.Yet, they were completely fine with letting a murderer drag me away, allowing 17-year-old me to be consumed by the flames. Before I had regained consciousness, they had even taken one of my kidneys and given it to Leo.Catching the storm of emotions crashing in my eyes, Mom and Dad froze for a split second—as if suddenly realizing something—and their tone completely shifted. "Please don't do

Mom's hands stilled, and she fell silent. Then, she looked away, avoiding my expectant gaze. "That was just an accident," she said, her voice laced with guilt. "You're young and beautiful. If you marry Kieran, maybe he'll treat you better than your father and I ever did."A lump formed in my throat, and I bit my lip, unable to utter another word. So, she was well aware that she and Dad had treated me terribly all these years. Mom locked the balcony door from the outside. I bit through the inside of my lip, closing my eyes in helplessness as tears soaked through my pillow. My bag, which was out in the living room, still held the gifts I had bought for Mom and Dad with the wages I'd earned from two months of my summer job. However, did they ever see me as their family? I couldn't wrap my head around it. In a heartbeat, my chest felt tight and unbearably painful, and I passed out.…When I came to, the first thing that came into view was a pockmarked face. "Honey, you're finall
